Lot of RBs.  Maybe he cuts a decent deal to stay on a winner with a coach that is using him quite nicely.

I think the biggest priority is CGJ. if i was picking second would be bradberry but i have a feeling they already assume he’s gone do to how well he’s playing and likely to get paid. 

I’d be pretty thrilled if we brought back cgj, bradberry, white/edwards, seumalo, hargrave and sanders. I just don’t see all returning. I do like seumalo more than others.

Having played a lot of rugby in my life, as a winger and full back, I’ve made countless drop kicks. I even was allowed to attempt one in a football exhibition game. 
 

In rugby, if you did what the punter did today, it would be ruled a knock on. The drop kick is a very specific kick. 
 

@Iggles_Phan described it perfectly, mixing a technical explanation with a lay person explanation. 

Well I’m sorrrrrrrry Jordan mailata

I believe Hargrave is worth the contract he’ll command too. Losing him and Cox in the same offseason would crush our Dline

Well, we overtook Dallas for point differential. I wonder if we still only have a 30% chance to beat them on Christmas Eve.

I'm not guessing at the rule, I'm literally quoting the rule. "Immediately as or after it touches the ground ..." 

You are misquoting the rule. The rule is "As or immediately after".  Big difference in the meaning from what you are repeating.

Totally forgot about him. He’s also important.

I think Hargrave's future might depend on who we draft. If we draft Carter or Bursee, they might just let him walk.

That was a pretty crappy punt by jk Scott

Free agency is in March.  Hargrave isn’t waiting until the draft to get paid.

Yup, let's hope if they let him walk, they get the DT they want.

Not quite.  John Fogerty as a solo artist. 

Whether the rest of CCR knew it or not, John Fogerty was always a solo artist.  He would go into the studio at night and play over the rest of their notes.

Tua having one of the worst games I've seen out of a QB this season.

Oof

Dolphins offense looks awful right now. Surprising the chargers defense playing well down James, bosa and jackson.

Draft will be way after Hargrave signs somewhere, but even if we take Jalen Carter we’ll have 3 mammoth holes in the DT rotation with Cox, Hargrave, Suh/Joseph gone. We don’t need a rookie starting next to second year Davis if we can help it

It'll be interesting to see what they do with Miles. If I had to guess, they're second guessing the idea of letting him hit free agency. Though with a tight cap, I'm not sure they even have a choice. They're better off letting him go, but man, he has had a really nice season.

His success for us in 2022 leads to a better comp pick for us in 2024.

Win-win

It’s extremely rare and difficult to win 3 games in a row in the road in the NFL.  On a short week, it’s entirely sensible for them to not be favored in that game right. Doesn’t mean they’re not the better team.  You’re sensitive when it comes to the Eagles.  It’s ok buddy.  

Third game of a road trip is always hard. Eagles beat the saints in 2020 on the third leg of the 3 game road trip. The short week really doesn’t help in matters. Kind of BS the nfl gave us 3 games all on the road and the last on a short week. In hindsight should’ve made Dallas/eagles a Xmas day SNF game compared to what they have now

No you are wrong. 

 

The drop kick came under controversy in 2019, after Justin Tucker of the Baltimore Ravens used the maneuver on a kickoff late in a game against the Kansas City Chiefs. The drop kick was intended to force the Chiefs to fair catch the ball, preventing them from running out the clock. As 2:01 was showing on the game clock and a fair-caught kickoff does not run any time off the clock, it would force the Chiefs to run a play before the two-minute warning. Several weeks after the kick, league offices claimed the maneuver was illegal. Ravens head coach John Harbaugh disputed this, noting that they had cleared it with the NFL before using the drop kick and were not penalized by the in-game officials. The NFL's statement claimed that the ball was not kicked immediately after the bounce. Tucker made his approach and dropped the ball to the ground. He did not like the bounce and picked the ball up, retreating back for a second approach and dropped the ball a second time before kicking it. The NFL's statement suggested a false start should have been called on Tucker for not kicking the ball on the first drop. An article on CBS Sports stated that the NFL had made a midseason rule change banning the drop kick, but no statement from the NFL has ever confirmed this.^[20] It was later clarified that Tucker's drop kick action was illegal because he did not kick the ball "immediately" after the ball touched the ground. Rather, Tucker threw the ball upwards, allowed it to drop to the ground, then kicked the ball as it was falling from its apex after bouncing.

 

But the explanation is in here. The bounce is legal as long as it is kicked on the way up before it's apex. Once it starts falling it can no longer be kicked legally. The Giants punter kicked the ball as it was descending making it illegal.

 

Thanks for playing.

In that scenario, Howie will probably look for a veteran stopgap or two to compliment the rookie, Davis, and Milton.

That’s a BS roughing call

Awful RTP call

In you guys’ debate over who’s the best QB, you’re leaving out the impact of coaching.  Hurts is driving the bus on his huge improvement, but a large part of his success can be drawn up to excellent coaching from Sirianni and Steichen.  Obviously Mahomes has Andy Reid, Burrow has Press Taylor’s infinitely better brother.  
 

I don’t see Herbert getting the same caliber of coaching in his development.

I believe the league’s interpretation of immediately after means virtually simultaneous, not when it’s a couple of inches off the ground.

Incidentally I was pretty annoyed with the broadcast crew when that play happened. They acted like it’s just another punt and prepared to go to a commercial break. Meanwhile I’m screaming at the tv that that’s illegal. You can’t randomly kick a ball like that! I knew immediately that we were getting the ball thereabouts.

Nope. you're wrong - see the explanation I found above
